Pro-Life Texas Legislator Threatened With Rape

As SB 5, a bill that would ban abortions at 20-weeks, prepares to be passed in the Texas Senate, pro-abortion activists have threatened pro-life legislators, like State Senator Donna Campbell, with rape. : Sexual assault was also wished upon her family. : Alas, we have the tolerant left.: As Betsy Woodruff at National Review: reported on July 2:

State senator Donna Campbell, who issued the third point of order against Davis’s filibuster (which ended it), has also been the target of extensive verbal abuse from pro-choice protesters, according to her spokesman Jon Oliver.

“Lots of language – ‘You’re an effin’ blank,’ ‘You are a traitor to women’ – those kind of things,” Oliver says. “I wouldn’t say anything’s necessarily a direct threat, but they’re the kind of e-mails that make you a little nervous, especially when you start talking about family members: ‘I hope your family members are raped.’”

Oliver tells me that the Department of Public Safety is on high alert during the special session. He also says that the pro-choice offices near his office have been receiving flowers from activists. One staffer from Davis’s office asked him if his office had gotten any flowers.

He tells me his response was, “No, quite the opposite.”

Liberals have threatened a sitting legislator with sexual assault, but conservatives are the ones with the rape problem. Additionally, when State Sen. Wendy Davis began her filibuster of SB 5 on June 25, she said, “Lawmakers, either get out of the vagina business or go to medical school.” : That’s ironic. Donna Campbell is a doctor. : Yet, I’m not seeing her interviewed on the major news networks.

This egregious behavior is indicative of the institutional left. They’re intolerant, vicious, and devoid of decency. : Then again, that’s what your become when you lack core principles.

I think abortion should remain legal. I believe there are situations, unfortunately, that this is the only remedy. This should not be used as birth-control or for an “inconvenient” pregnancy. I think the government should stay the hell out of it. Leave the decision to the mother, she’s the one who has to live with it.

Evil breeds evil. We will pray for those who do not understand. People are going to have their own choices. That is what this country is about. But, to threaten someone for not agreeing that is pure evil.

Abortion is flat out Murder and should carry a life sentence! Once again I apologize to you God. I am not responsible for someone using my tax dollars for abortions. Pro choice means ” I Defied God and Sent Myself to Hell”!

Ths kind of thing is usually perpetrated by person devoid of any core principles & values, I’m going out on a limb here and say its the work of the few who screw it up for the rest on all levels, but, I find its the ones who hold themselves to a higher ground than everyone else who do this sort of thing.Hypocrites , two-faced Godless people who onlythink what’s best for them and the heck with everyone else. Lets use abortion for selfish reasons yet lets not use the Death Penalty to serve justce in severe and heinous crimes.(sorry spell check).

I guess it’s easy to be intolerant and ignorant, totally classless when you have no core principles or a shred of decency at all. I find the hypocracy of the left so amazing that it really sickens me – why can’t the vast majority of people see them for what they are?
